After last weeks flash update Hulu desktop no longer works on my Dell laptop though it still works on my HP Desktop. Here's what CLI tells me on the Dell:
Inspiron-1564:~$ huludesktop
Failed to open VDPAU backend libvdpau_nvidia.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I tried: sudo apt-get install libvdpau_nvidia.so
but got E: Unable to locate package libvdpau_nvidia.so
and E: Couldn't find any package by regex 'libvdpau_nvidia.so'
Hulu does work through the browser and through XBMC. XBMC just doesn't seem to match the video quality of the Hulu Desktop.
I don't really know why a nvidia.so is needed for my Intel graphics that comes on Dell Insiron 1564's. anyway. So, do you guys have a solution?
